Hi, I just bought an '87 GN and I'm trying to sort out some things...
The only things I actually need are a new muffler and a left outer tie rod end.
I figure I'm going to be upgrading much of the exhaust system, so for now I'm just going to get the cheapest muffler I can find that will fit.
I do need to know what people would recommend, as far as a good quality tie rod end.
Also, I'm expecting to do some modifications and have some 1/4-mile fun next spring, so I'd like to find out what people think I should do. From what I've read (here and elsewhere), as well as my own preferrences, here's my initial plan:
Scan tool (I'm not sure which one to get - I'd like to be able to datalog with a computer)
Transmission and oil coolers, and an external transmission filter (not really a "performance" mod, but I like improving reliability)
Alcohol injection
Valve springs
Blow-off valve
Asjustable wastegate of some sort (what's the best way to turn up the boost?)
That's my starting list. Any recommendations of things I missed, or things that might not be a good idea?
Thanks,
Joe
